Eldo Netlist Setup<br />

Simulator Commands and Options<br />

The following characters are not allowed in node names: (), {}, ', =. Node names can not begin<br />

with any of the following characters: *, +, -, &, |, ". Do not use the period character (.) in a node<br />

name because it is reserved as a hierarchy separator between a subcircuit name and a node<br />

name.<br />

Node names cannot be broken at the end of a line.<br />

Whenever Eldo sees a node name with suffix “.0”, Eldo assumes that node 0 was intended if the<br />

name also begins with an X, for example, the following are identical:<br />

C1 a XA.0 1p<br />

C1 a 0 1p<br />

Alternatively, with the following syntax, a node named a.0 is created as a regular node.<br />

C1 a a.0 1p<br />

Node Names Used Inside Subcircuits<br />

The following example shows a legal node name used to access a node from a higher level of<br />

hierarchy than the one in which it is defined:<br />

X27.X113.N3<br />

The node N3 is located within a subcircuit X113 which, in turn, is located inside another<br />

subcircuit X27.<br />
